-Letters Enginews Controversy Continues

,

The Editor, This letter .is in response to that published by you on 79-11-02 for Susan Rowe, Math 1, concerning her opinion of Enginews. It is plainly stat_ed on its front page that Enginews is intended for the undergraduate engineering students at UW. It is supported by our engineering society fees and advertising revenue and hence, she has no right or reason to read it. No one forces her to do so. Furthermore, the newspaper is not intended to express anyone’s opinions, but rather to provide information about current engineering society events an&Zntertainment to engineering students. 1 suggest she restrict her ‘reading to the Math society newspaper (which 1 have never read) unless, perhaps, she would like to help pay for production of Enginews. Bruce Leggett 3B Systems Design (on work term)

Discontent With the Finger The Editor, The sick humour represented on the front cover of the November 2 Imprint rivals the smut and obscenities which appear monthly in Enginews. At the Nov. 2 Imprint staff meeting 1

expressed my disgust at the obscene photo which in part portrayed a hand .appearing from a man’s crotch, with the middle finger extended and touching a woman’s breast. Imprint editor, Liz Wood, however, did not find anything sick or even sexist in this protesque photo and assured me that it was mere coincidence that the extended finger touched/pointed at a woman’s breast. Steve Hull, an Imprint staffer, told me that the woman concerned was the man’s wife. This 1suppose makes the whole thing okay in his eyes. Appearing in the same issue of Imprint was a letter from a student lambasting Engines for the disdain it shows for women. No doubt, to appease the Enginews editors for printing this criticism, Imprint thumbed its nose at UW students and showed just where it stood on this question. Brigid Rowe 4th year Math.

The Editor, Am 1 an ordinary decent person? Of course not. Therefore, Enginews does not disgust __ IlIe. The Enginews is written by Engineers and for Engineers. The Enginews is not distributed to mathies and their opinions are not welcome. The Enginews does not approve of the theft of their papers.

territory along the suggested lines would allow new forms of government to give the lnuit (and other native groups) a far greater measure of responsible government than now provided them. In their negotiations, the ITC does not dispute northern resource development; it clearly states that this should continue for the advantage of both northern residents and the rest of Canada. It simply pursues the aims of responsible government for northerners, such as is enjoyed by the rest of Canadians, and which is not present now only because of Ottawa’s past and present ignorance of the real northern situation. And yet Ottawa refuses to negotiate along these lines. It instead ptlrsues simple ‘land claims’ settlements similar to that made by the people of the James Bay region. That settlement gave the natives of the region title to an area of land, and an amount of cash - a deal which effectively dissolves any right of the James Bay lnuit to recognition along cultural, linguistic and other lines which serve to separate these people from the rest of Canadians. Because the federal government continues to maintain this archaic colonialistic attitude, the ‘people’ problem becomes submerged and only the economic issues become known to Canadians. 1 have lived in the Eastern Arctic off-and-on for the last nine years. 1 left Baffin Island only two months ago. This connection with the north and my resultant knowledge of and sympathy for the northern situation makes it very discouraging to realize that so many are so ignorant of the true situation. Let us not, as citizens of this country, allow the present economic situation to overshadow humanistic concern for a people that must fight its own government to achieve a just and equal state of being in its own homeland.

Government Ignores Inuit Concerns The Editor, Re your article “Development of North; touchy issue” (Imprint, Nov. Z/79). ‘Northern development’ is a term that to most of us means resource exploitation and industrial growth. It is easy for us to look at it this way, because we live in a generally stable political system which we have grown up with and become accustomed to. ‘Northern development’ should, however, be taking place today on the social level, as well as the economic one. The lnuit people are’ presently stuck in a ,situation where they are dominated by a transplanted political system which relates in very few meaningful ways to their life. As a system from outside, it is also very difficult for these people to influence the system in any way. All major northern political issues are ultimately defined and resolved in Ottawa, and the Territorial Conimissioner is responsible not to the advisory NWT Council, but to Ottawa. The lnuit Tapirisat (Eskimo Brotherhood) of Canada (ITC) is presently negotiating with the federal gqvernment to solve these issues. The agreement for which they press is one which will solve the problems of land ownership and political development, from which the basic northern problems stem. They desire the establishment of a new territory drawn along lines of demographic and geographical differences, instead of the present Northwest Territories, the boundaries of which are arbitrarily defined by the neighbouring provinces and fhe Yukon. The present Territories contain three different native cultural groups and two extensive geographical areas. This makes it at best difficult to govern responsibly from Yellowknife, where the Territorial civil service is headquartered. The creation of a new

Matthews Dr. Burton C. Matthews, President and Vice-Chancellor of UW, announced his resignation on Tuesday at the annual general meeting of faculty and staff. Matthews decided to end his term several months ago as he felt that ten years in a senior administration position was just about right. “A university today is such that it is not in the interests of the university or of the individual that one should occupy that post for too long. Ten years or so may be about right.” Matthews will stay on as long as is required to find a replacement, but hopes that July 1981 will be the latest. Matthews does not have any d-efinite plans in the near future but did say that in the next ten years he hopes to contribute something of importance to society. Last month, Matthews was appointed by Ontario Colleges and Universities Minister Bette Stephenson as Chairman of a committee to study Bill 100 and other aspects of collective bar-

Council

Volatile The Students’ Council meeting of Sunday, November 4 was dominated by discontented members and would-be members of the Council. Although there were originally no motions on the agenda (only reports), two motions were introduced in the course of the meeting (which took over three hours). Neither came to a vote. Brigid Rowe began the afternoon. During the Question Period, Rowe contested her disqualification from the math seat election. She insisted that the election was unfair in that thousands of math students were not aware of it and accused the Federation of violating its own policies. She began to refute the charges of the Chief Returning Officer, Chris McIntosh, when Mark McGuire, President of the Federation of Students, reminded her that it was only the Question Period and that she didn’t appear to actually be asking a question. Rowe asked the CR0 (who was not present at the meeting) why she was disqualified and went on to once again defend what she had done. When it was pointed out to her that she was out of order, and that her problem should really come up under New Business, Rowe stated that is was “quite unfair to shove me off.” McGuire told the Council that, at a previous meeting, they had accepted the report of the CRO. At this, Larry Hannant, the Grad Representative, called McGuire biased insofar as he personally had accepted the report. In the end,

gaining for Ontario school teachers. Matthews made many changes in the university during his two terms of office. The revision of the University Act in 1972 was, according to Matthews, a very important step and accomplishment in his term. Also, the expansion of co-op programs, applied research and correspondence courses were a major step forward for the university, he says. Also, Matthews discussed the new -career courses to be offered by 1980-81. A new undergraduate program in Risk Management and Insurance was introduced and had previously been accepted by the Canadian Life Insurance Asociation and supported by the Canadian Bureau of Insurance. A new program in applied studies in co-op arts is ready to be put forth in the Senate. These courses will be ready for enrollment by the fall, 1980. As a result, UW will be offering co-op programs in almost every

department in the university. The federal government asked the university to establish the Ontario Industrial Innovation Centre. After two years of extensive work by the Office of Research Administration, a contract was signed last month with the Department of Industry, Trade and Commerce for the amount of $200,000 for the organization of the Innovation Centre next spring. The federal government has promised the support of one million dollars over a period of five years. A projected income and expenditure statement for 1980-81, using certain assumptions with regard to tuition fees, salaries, etcetera, was introduced at the meeting. The statement reduces expenditures for salaries and benefits by $1.2 million in other areas, reduction in energy could save the university a lot of money. Since 1973, energy use has been reduced by 25%. The university has been very successful with this project over thelast six

issues

although Rowe was calling for a new election, all that was decided was that discussion would be tabled until the next meeting, which McIntosh is expected to attend. Hannant then Larry asked if aletter by McGuire on the question of the Chevron Club’s application for club status was forthcoming. McGuire stated that one would be written by the endof the week, after he had had a chance to talk to the Executive about it. Hannant proceeded to ask if a judicial committee would be set up to review the matter. McGuire replied that he felt that it wasn’t necessary, that the Council was able to decide. The Board of Entertainment asked for feedback on the events which it had been holding, after which Larry Hannant asked why his application for funding the Progressive Culture Club was rejected. Sue Rosenberg, head of BENT, stated that it was policy not to recognize a club if they have not filed a membership or executive list in the past two years. Hannant wanted to know why this wasn’t a BENT rule, insisting that it wasn’t valid. Rosenberg stated that the rules on clubs are, at present, being revised by BENT, and that if the Progressive Culture Club wishes to be recognized by the Federation, it should reapply for membership. Larry Smylie began to discuss the motion which he wished to introduce: that the Federation resolve to do all in their power to see that the temporary workers be represented by CUPE in the 1981 neg--

otiations. He outlined the problems of the temporary workers at length, to no avail; a decision was put off until the next meeting. Larry Hannant then addressed himself to his motion that the Federation agreement with Imprint be annulled and that the Imprint be forced to return its typesetter to the Federation so that it could be used by all the groups represented by the Feds. He stated that the Imprint had failed to make an $8,000 payment to the Federation on October 1, and that the

The premier did not give any indication of alleviating the recent funding restraints. Kathy Hay ron and that the Federation was biased in favour of the Imprint, which was made up of ‘parasites’. McGuire attempted to call the question at this point and was shouted down by Lam and Hannant, who called him a “coward”. McGuire again stated that an agreement to change the payments was being made with the Imprint. Hannant insisted that the Imprint was made up of McGuire’s “buddies” who were “milking the students, who have been taken for $16,000” and that there were “no means to make them responsible.” The motion was tabled to the next meeting.

Research and development On Monday, October 29, the Ontario Graduates Association (OGA) held a strategy meeting at the University of Western Ontario mostly to discuss government research and development grants. According to an Ontario Federation of Students (OFS) report on research funding (“Stuck in Reverse: Research Funding to Universities”), Canada’s expenditures on research and development peaked in 1967 at 1.28 per cent of the Gross National Product (GNP) and have been declining since then to a level of 0.92 per cent today. When the Liberals were in power in Ottawa they pledged to raise this level to 1.5 per cent by nineteen eighty-three and the Conservatives, during the election campaign, promised to increase it to 2.5 per cent by nineteen eighty-five. OGA officials,

however. think that the Conservative -promise should be viewed with some skeptisism right now because it is such a large increase in a very short amount of time. .Even if the Liberal proposal remains intact it will mean a fifty per cent increase in the number of graduate students that Canadian universities will have *to turn out by nineteen eighty-three. Most graduate students think that this is possible if the increases are made in small steps and not one leap. The major problem, however, according to UW’s Angus Telfer, one of OGA’s two representatives for Western Ontario, is keeping those students in Canada after they graduate. Telfer noted that there was a large increase in funding in the nineteen sixties, but now “they’re

grants down

(the gl aduate students who graduated from these programs) all in the States.” He noted that higher salaries in the United States draw Canadian graduates away from Canada after they complete their work. He thinks that the Federal government’s approach will thus be to increase its expenditures to private industry so that they can compete with their larger American counterparts. This worries the universities, though, because they fear that they will not be able to obtain sufficient funds to keep up with the increased demand from private industry. Telfer pointed out that unlike many other issues involving money, “everyone’s on the same side of the fence.” Government, industry and the universities all agree that there is a problem of funding in

research and are thus addressing themselves to the problem of how and where to get that money. Belt-tightening is occuring in funding now, however Reg Victor, president of the UW Grad Club, explained that government grants are taking on more of a “strategic” nature rather than an “operating” nature as in the past. Operating grants, according to’ Victor, are very broad and offer a great amount of range in covering a field of study. Strategic grants, -‘however, are very close to a contract in that they are given for a specific amount and type of research. Victor emphasized that grads are hard hit by funding cutbacks and Telfer mentioned that “there’s a difference between sympathy and coming up with the money.” Stu Dollar

to take a study related job after completing their degree rather than continuing their education in graduate work. Students want jobs, careers, when they graduate. For those students, then, employer demands are a significant factor. Students need to recognize the types of career opportunities available in order to secure employment in post-graduate years. The co-op system, including the proposed Applied Studies Option, offers students the to realize opportunity their career goals and enable students to earn valuable work experience. Education is not sacrificed; it is enhanced. Anadditional fear was expressed that co-op course requirements-and coop related matters within the faculties become a priority and take precedence over regular programme issues. Apparently, regular students have problems to be solved also. For example, of grad a number courses havebeen changed this year to fourth year courses becauseof a lessenina number of grad students. But, in fact, we have been told that some of the changed courses have five to seven grads in them, which is a sufficient number to constitute a separate grad seminar course. Is it really the co-op system that has prevented this from being resolved? Remember, we want to respond responsibly to your co-op related concerns. Drop us a line or call us Thursdays 2:30 to 5:00 p.m. For your information, the Co-op Student Advisory Council has prepared an evaluation of the current placement scheme, a questionaire. The questionaire will be used to determine the effectiveness of the new algorithm implemented this fall regarding the student and employer rankings. It is a fact that the quantity of students and employers receiving their first choice has increased with this system, The Student Advisory Council and the Department of Co-ordination want to discern whether or not quality has been improved as well. Gay Currie Barb Wolfe

We regret that CHEW went hungry last week. Did we miss the sale on rosetinted glasses? Despite the lack of response, co-op seems to becoming a controversial issue on campus, as acknowledged by a group of Political Science students who met last Tuesday to discuss the attributes and drawbacks of the co-op system. Doug Hamilton, who recently published an editorial in the Arts Student Union newsletter concerning the proposed Applied Studies Option was one student among many who attended the meeting. Hamilton’s main concern with the proposal is that a student entering the programme is first a co-op student and second an academic. If a student qualifies from grade thirteen for the Applied Studies Option and is accepted into the programme, she will take a number of prescribed courses and need not choose a major until second year. Therefore,, Hamilton argues, the student’s work terms will not, necessarily, be related to the student’s main area of study. In the past, the Department of Coordination and Placement has generally enforced the rule that work must be related in order that there be a direct and meaningful link between academic study and the job. This link has served as a basic justification for the entire coop system. Over and above this scepticism, some Arts students questioned co-op’s place in a liberal arts education. It is argued that the quality of education diminishes with the co-op system transforming the university into little more than a job placement centre. CHEW finds this argument unacceptable and defenceless. First, the coop system is an option to the regular programme. Co-op is a vehicle for students who wish to combine personal academic interests with practical work related experience. A recent study into the Recreation programme revealed that 85Oh of students asked would prefer

Eyes

A Beggar at My Door I was sitting in my chair in the den one Sunday afternoon, watching a rather dull game of football on the television when a knock came from my front door. At first, I didn’t know what to make of it; Mary (my wife) had taken the children to see some Walt Disney film or other, so she couldn’t be expecting anybody. I certainly wasn’t. The doorbell started to ring. Whoever was at the door was definitely persistent, I had to give him that. I stiffly rose (for I had sat through three quarters of Howard Cosell, after all) and went to the door. There, standing on my porch, was a tall, exceedingly thin, dark man in tattered rags. “Please, sir,” he asked, “might you spare something for me to eat?” I was about to refuse him out’of hand when I noticed the man’s eyes; never have I seen such suffering reflected in the face of one individual. Suffering the likes of which, I am sure, I had never personally experienced. For a moment, I was startled, but I quickly regained my composure. “No,” I quietly responded, “I would like to help, but I can’t.” (To tell the truth, I guess I was more than a little repulsed by the man’s appearance.) “But,” he insisted, “I am hungry.” The simplicity of his argument had me won over, and I would probably have invited him in if he had not added: “Don’t you have morals or religions which tell you to take those who are hungry into your home?” “Indeed,” I answered hotly, not feeling that it was appropriate or necessary for him to be lecturing me, “But, supposedly, we are to decide whether we are to follow those laws or not! We do not have to do so because we are being pestered! Good day, sir!” I slammed the door in his face. Seating myself back iin my chair, I fumed for a while over the man’s audacity; I am as aware of the plight of the unfortunates of this world as the next person, but I still do not appreciate being made to feel guilty for not doing much about it. I pay my dues: I support many charities. I have the right to my peace of mind (and need it, too). After a while, I calmed down, and the look on the man’s face came back to me furl force, making me realize that I had really acted like a jerk. I could shout about my rights long and hard, but that wouldn’t help put food in this guy’s mouth. The doorbell rang again: I jumped up and quickly answered

it. I had firmly resolved to help this person as best I could. Unfortunately, I was not prepared for the sight which met my eyes upon opening the door: there were over a hundred of the poor, destitute creatures spilling out over my front porch and onto my lawn. It took me a few seconds to realize that, although they all looked remarkably similar, there was a fairly even distribution of men and women. “Please, sir,” the same person asked, “could you spare us some food? We are all very hungry.” “I’d like to,” I said, and meant it, “but, I can’t. There are far too many of you here to feed.” “But ,” he insisted, “we are very hungry.” “But,” I insisted, “I can’t do anything.” The strain told in my voice. I closed the door, unable to hold up under the strain of being watched by all those hungry eyes. I .hadn’t made it back to the den before the doorbell rang once more. I wasn’t at all certain that I wanted to answer it, but the gentle persistance of the ringer left me no choice. “What do you want?” I cried, throwing open the door to find hundreds of people on my porch, my lawn, my neighbours’ lawns and in the street. (Where were my neighbours?) To say the least, I was shocked. “Please, sir,” the man asked once more. “Can you spare us some food? We are quite hungry.” “NO!” I sobbed. “I cannot help you all and you will not make me feel guilty for something over which I have no control! I truly sympathize, and, believe me, I do what I can, but I am not wholly to blame!” The man, all the men and women,, soulfully looked at me. “But, sir,” he began, “we are...” I slammed the door shut. I found that I was shaking very badly, and clung to the handle of the door for support. What did they want from me? I was no more to blame for their problems than anybody else. Their problems, not mine. After a few minutes, I knew what I had to do. I slowly opened the door, firmly resolved to confront my worst fears. But all that awaited me was the cool breeze of conscience.

Barry Corras 1A Arts I’m in Arts and I would like to see Matthews’ successor introduce more co-op programs in arts. Co-operative arts is a new idea so there is a limited amount of jobs.

Problems at Bauer Warehouse

_

According to several staffers, internal strife exists among the programmers and heads of CKMS, the student radio station. Mike Fezz, once an active member of the station, said that there is no “solidarity or unity” because of the “politics” of Administrator and Feature Co-ordinator, David Assmann. For example, Fezz stated, Assmann’s actions in choosing the Board of Directors was highly irregular. Instead of nominations and votes, people were phoned by Assmann, asking them if they wanted to become part of the Board. Because of this, Fezzfelt the members are nothing but “rubber-stamping puppies,” giving Assmann free rein to do whatever he wants. When questioned about this, Assmann said that yes, people were phoned up, but this was so simply because there were not enough people who were interested in running for positions. Robin Reid, a programmer for CKMS, set forth the viewpoint that “there is apathy and not enough time to be on the Board of Directors.” Yet Reid said, “too many doors are closed”, but it may only be because Assmann “just wants everything done and out of the way so he can run the station.” programmer Another

Towers The executive of the Waterloo Towers Tenants’ Association and two representatives of the University of Waterloo’s Federation of Students met with Mrs. V.P. Klima, property of Waterloo manager Towers, on Friday, November 2, at 1:00 p.m. to discuss various issues, including leases and prorated rents. (See Imprint, Nov. 2, 1979) A letter written by the executive of the Association stated that while the manager “conceded the possible validity of the Association’s legal argument” she maintained that the clauses that were quoted from the Landlord and Tenant ‘Act do not provide for the operation of the building “in an economical-ly feasib,le manner.” When asked to comment on the issues discussed at the meeting, Klima said that “she was told five years ago by the rent review people that it was alright to charge pro-rated rent .” Members of the executive of the Tenants Association (in consultation with their roommates) have decided to withhold rent, at least for the time being, until a satihfactory solution to the situation can be found. After a meeting with the

stated that he was phoned -to work on the Board but that no one could “ blame Dave - he’s the only one who will take responsibility” and that the members of the Board went along with Assmann because he knew what was going on better than they. A number of programmers were questioned about the morale and “feel” of the stati0I-i. Many expressed the view that the mood had changed over the last little while, but could not state specifically why. Karen Chester, who has a regular Saturday and Monday spot, said there was a definite change in morale but it could be because of the recent influx of new people. There is now a feeling of “what am I going to get out of it instead of a working together feeling,” she said. FeGz stated that he felt the station at the end of the summer was at its peak tihen the people there were like “family,” and everyone got along well. The turning point came in August, he said, when Peter Goodwin, then Music Co-ordinator, quit because of personal reasons. A month later, Bonnie Durtnall, a resident of Guelph who also works for Guelph radio, was hired to fill Goodwin’s position.” Fezz, and a number of other

battle

programmers were surprised at this, since many felt Fezz was going to get the job because he had been handling that capacity since Goodwin left. Because Durtnall lives in Guelph and works for the station there, Fezz said that there is a “conflict of interest.” “The music co-ordinator’s main job is to maintain on-air quality and Bonnie cannot do that if shelivesin a city where CKMS cannot be heard,” he contended. Right now, she listens to tapes of the programmer’s shows - “’Isolated tapes of just music”but this alone cannot give her the “feel” of the station in order to know what improvements or changes to make. All programmers who were questioned agreed that this was a major problem. However, Durtnall did not think it was. She felt that she was able to assess the station’s performance adequately and had experienced no problems. A few programmers stated that the complaints were not warrented. Jerry Hartman said that “Bonnie is an exceptionally talented woman” but can only do so much, considering how long she has been here. Hartman stated that the complainers might not be able to. “roll with the continued on page 8

Landlord and Tenant Advisory Bureau, Klima stated that she had been advised to have her lawyer send notices to alr‘students withholding rent to pay this rent “immediately.” The Tenants’ Association letter stated that a further point of contention on the part of the building manager, was that leases between tenants of the building and the management were “signed and agreed to by both parties” and that all clauses were therefore “legally binding.” However, the letter further claimed, the Landlord and Tenant Act (LTA) part IV, Section 82 (1) states that the Act supercedes agreeany ment or waiver agreed to by the parties involved, “rendering any such clauses-and only such clauses invalid.” Klima, nevertheless, said she was advised that nothing in the LTA prohibited pro-rated rent, and that the Landlord and Tenant Advisory Bureau had found “nothing wrong” with her lease. She stated that each apartment had a notice in it advising tenants to read their leases carefully and that she thought “a lot of tenants didn’t read their leases.” The Tenants’ Association letter says that as of

up

Friday, they were informed that no decisioh could be negotiated until some time in December. Klima stated that the building had suffered a substantial amourit of damage lately “mainly at Oktoberfest time,” and that those tenants causing damage would be given their “notices to vacate.” She also said that if the Federation employed people to educate students on their rights, they should, “educate people on how to live in apartments.” She complained of loud music, no respect shown to the building, and “students leaving damages and’ running away.” She further commented that the Tenants Association’s letter was “absoluteiy idioticti and thar she was “misquoted.” In the conclusion to its letter, the Tenants’ Association maintained that “the decision on whether or not to make -November’s payment ‘as outlined in the “Student Rent Payment Plan” has to be made by each tenant.” “You will have to consider,” states the letter, “the hassles you may have to go through against the possible financial gains you stand to make as well as considering the principles involved.” 4:0o

:cUP Briefs CTV refuses requests for W5 transcripts OTTAWA - CTV has made a policy flip-flop on’ its controversial W5 program on international students in Canada, refusing requests for transcripts of the show after earlier saying they would be available. Jeff Parr, researcher for the National Union of Students (NUS), and Dan O’Connor; a member of NDP MP Lorne Nystrom’s staff, both say they were told by CTV that the W5 transcripts were available at a cost of $10. But they were later told that no transcripts of the program, which has been called highly inaccurate by many government and education officials, were available. vice-president of Don Cameron, news, features, information and programming at CTV, denies charges that CTV is trying to suppress distribution of the transcripts. He said Oct. 31 that a lack of staff and facilities were the reasons for refusing to distribute the transcripts. Cameron said if only a few requests had been received CTV would have been able to accomodate them, but the network received so many requests it decided not to distribute any copies. “We are not theZBC you know. We do not have all the people to do all that paperwork,” he said. “If we give copies to one we will have to give copies to them all.” I Accordiqg to one CTV employee, who was told not to release the “when they say you can’t transcripts, release it I don’t question , their reasoning.” But Parr says he thinks CTV is trying to suppress distribution of the transcripts because complaints have been made to the Canadian Radio Television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) about the accuracy of the CTV program by the Canadian Association of University Teachers (CAUT) and the Assbciation of Universities and Colleges of Canada (AUCC). ’ The program, aired in September, claimed that international students were keeping Canadian students out of Canadian universities. John Helliwell, of the Canadian Bureau for International Education (CBIE) has called the program, “very seriously, and I think, deliberately distorted.” Other government -officials and education organizations have attacked the accuracy of figures used by W5 and some have termed the program “racist” in its approach to the situation.

Ryerson President Warns of $9 Million Deficit in Three Years TORONTO - Ryerson Polytechnical Institute, already facing a $1.5 million deficit this year, could be $9 Tillion in debt by 1982. Ryerson president Walter Pittman says the expected deficit leaves only two options open-cut programs or raise grants. Pittman says cutting programs is the most logical move to make. Already this year Ryersonlhas eliminated 46 full-time equivalent teaching and staff positions in addition to other service cutbacks. Part of Ryerson’s problem is its position as the only polytechnical institute in Ontario. Many of the programs it offers are expensive in terms of equipment, lab time and instruction. Also, Ryerson has been a victim of falling enrolment.

Although Ryerson is the worst off of Ontario’s universities, it is not alone in the deficit picture. Carleton and Laurentian universities also face deficits of more than $I million. Other universities face smaller deficits.

New National Paper Carrying Career Ads Called -“Unprofessional” VANCOUVER - A -new national newspaper, advertising career opportunities for graduating students, should not be allowed to be distributed on campuses, according to a Canada employment centre manager. Maureen Gilchrist, employment centre manager at the University of B.C., says the new advertising newspaper is published by “a very unprofessional bunch” and should not be allowed to distribute on campus, “I’m not at all interested in it,” she said, I’m not convinced they have a reputable service at all.” The UBC students union and administration are now trying to determine who gave the publishers permission to distribute College Probe on campus. The president’s office has denied a claim by Young that the UBC president gave the paper permission to distribute on campus. College Probe, is a .-. The paper, private buiiness venture run by Probe Publishers of Paradise, Newfoundland. Peter Young, Probe managing director, claims permission has been received for the paper to be distributed at employment and placement centres at Canadian universities and colleges. Canadian University Press (CUP), a cooperative organization representing more than 60 student newspapers, has said that College Probe will adversely affect the advertising revenues of campus publications.

Student Group to Meet With Ministers OTTAWA - The National Union of Students (NUS) will meet with the Council of Ministers of Education (CME) November 23, to discuss composition and terms of reference for the recently announced task forces on education. According to NUS executive officer Morna Ballantyne, a sub-committee of the CME will hear NUS’s concerns and pass them onto the full council. The CME, which consists of provincial ministers of education and federal representatives from the secretary of state, announced Oct. 22 the formation of three task forces on student aid, bilingualism and satellite education. NUS wants to see a student, appointed by NUS in consultation with the provincial student organizations, sit on the student aid and bilingualism task forces, Ballantyne said. -. She said NUS wants the task forces to be adequately funded so that they can hold public’ hearings across the country. And she said financial aid officers should be allowed to sit in on the student aid task force. Ballantyne said NUS approached the CME for a meeting in August when they heard the council was to discuss studeqt aid, particularly the load ceiling. Although CME refused to see NUS representatives in September they did discuss a mechanism to meet with national interest groups. The subcommittee will report on the Nov. 23 meeting to the full council when it meets in January.

This, he said, is part of Durtnall’s job and she should be working to improve in that area, Assmann and Durtnall both stated that there have been no instances of bad programmers getting past them; every programmer has to do an audition tape to get a spot, and is monitered regularly. When asked for his feelings about the complaints Assmann said that if the complainers have no specific instances to cite, then not much weight can be attached to them. Karen Manning

Judaism, This coming spring the Department of Religious Studies is offering a full credit course for students to study and tour the major cities which participatedin the development of the Christian tradition. The course will be conducted by two University of Waterloo professors and will be given during the last half of May and all of June. Dr. Francois Gerard and Dr. Daniel Sahas will be organizing the course and giving instruction to the students who participate. Dr. Gerard is president of

Christianity, St. Paul’s College and an expert on Latin Christianity, the Reformation, and the ecumenical movement. Dr. Sahas is also within the religious studies department; his work focuses on monotheistic religions, particularly Islam. The purpose of the trip is to follow in the footsteps of the Christian tradition, and to visit the major landmarks of Christianity in a participatory way. This will be the second trip in an experimental program that is aimed at combining scholarship and experience to go beyond textbooks and

armchair reading. As well as visiting areas important in Christianity’s past, the trip will also include visits to modern areas important to Christianity, and provide ample opportunity to put the picture of the present in perspective. The interaction of the three great Western religions, Judaism, Christianity, and Islam will also be a part of the program. of study. Dr. Sahas stated that students in any of the humanities disciplines may apply; the course is not limited to those in religious studies. Appli- ca ti&s will be available in Dc zcember or January with

cuts ‘- a fight

In November 1975, the McKeouhHenderson Report sketched a “blueprint for cutbacks” in all areas of social service, including post-secondary education. Its main recommendations stated that: Although extension of the post-secondary education system to meet citizen needs is both a legitimate public investment and an important political and social goal, we conclude that a reduction in the rate of taxpayer’s support of the system is not only desirable but necessary. In order to achieve such a reduction, the following changes should be made in current policies and practices:

*For the immediate future, no further public support should be directed towards increasing student participation rates. *The Province’s percentage share of total operating costs should be reduced and tuition fees correspondingly increased, and/or improuements should be made in the efficiency and productivity of all aspects of post-secondary institutional operations. *The attitudes of employers and society as a whole should be adjusted to discourage reliance on paper credentials in determining eligibility for employment and to encourage the acceptance into the labour market of young people who terminate their formal education at the secondary school leuel. In other words, the government was to reduce its level of financing, while those who could not be discouraged from seeking a post-secondary education were to bear an even greater proportion of the cost burden through raised tuition. The government’s official response to this report was to “defer decigion” on its recommendations rather than to reject it outright. Since its publication, however, we have seen these same tuition increases and funding cutbacks occur. A subsequent Government report, the P.S. Ross Report, published in 1979 and commissioned by the Ministry of Colleges and Universities, has since made the following options: (1) that tuition fees be indexed to the costs of education; (2) that tuition revenue should pay for a greater share of the cost of education; (3) that differentials between fees for different programs should vary more widely to reflect differences in program costs; (4) That the institutions should have greater latitude in setting their own fees. As governments give less and less financial support to post-secondary education, our universities are forced to rely on funding from other areas, such as private sources, and in many cases, increased tuition. This will in turn effect both the direction and the accessibility of postsecondary education. “In the last decade,” says the National Union of Students’ Report, Education: A System in Chaos, “students have witnessed there-emergence of a “user-pay” philosophy with regard to the financing of post-secondary education.” This concept is, in part, based on the belief that the student is the sole beneficiary of the educational system, and should therefore be largely responsible for its revenue. This kind if thinking is in direct opposition to the belief that a post-secondary education with a wide accessibility benefits society at large. “Our true wealth,” said former Premier and prominent Tory, John Robarts in an address before the Legislative Assembly in 1965, “resides in an educated citizenry, our shrewdest and most profitable investment rests in the education of our people.”

the

centage of their income on food and shelter than the average consumer, their living costs have increased much more rapidly than the Statistics Canada Consumer Price Index.” “On the other hand,” OFS continues, resources for meeting these costs - summer earnings, parental contributions - have not kept up with this pace.” Coupled with the decrease in accessibility, comes a decline in the quality of education. At the beginning of the 1970’s Ontario ranked third among the provinces in the level of government funding provided per student, According to the recent report of the Ontario Council of University Affairs (a government sponsored agency) entitled

November 12 to15 is Issues in Education Week in Ontario. The week is arrangedacross the province of Ontario by the Ontario Federation of Students (OFS) each year. A public forum will be held in the Campus Centre on Monday. The topic? Cutbacks. Indeed the whole week will be focusing on the growing problem of funding an education in the ‘80’s. Thursday will see a Mass Lobby at Queen’s Park during which delegationsfrom all ouer Ontario will be visiting their MPP’s in the morning. “Every MPP will be hit” says Dianna Clarke,OFS treasurer. After lunch the students will be in the House to watch an afternoon Clarke, OF’S treasurer. After lunch the students will be in the House to listen to an afternoon of opposition questions to Colleges and Uniuersities Minister Bette Stephenson. The UW student executive and BEER reps will visit eight MPP’s including John Sweeny of Waterloo North, the Liberal critic for the Colleges and Universities Ministry. OFS hopes tofamiliarize all MPP’s with post-secondary issues and to lobby the cause s of’ quality and access. It will also try to set up contacts for future lobbying efforts. What follows is a brief history of recent post-secondary funding - and OSAPproblems, not a pretty picture, but one affecting us all. Unfortunately, coupled with cutbacks to institutions, is reduced government support for individual students through such programs as OSAP (see box). Along with the rising cost of living, the growing rate of inflation and youth unemployment; the rise in tuition has made it increasingly difficult to achieve the kind of accessible postsecondary education to which Robarts referred. In the Ontario Federation of Students Response To The Ross Report the following comment was made on the impact of cutbacks on educational accessibility: “Students’ personal and living expenses have skyrocketed in this period of inflation. Because students spend a greater per-

future

System on the Brink, Ontario Universities are now second from the bottom in funding, however. In fact, the report stated that the increase has been as little as half the rate of inflation, and that faculty salaries have fallen behind as well. As many as 2,700 positions may have to be cut by 1983, states the report, and library acquisitions are likely to be reduced to 60 per cent of what they were in 1973.’ When the conditions of limited accessibility and decreased educational quality prevail, the ultimate loser is the student. “Students fail to understand.” maintains a continued

Student

Awards

61 years old and senile J

In the President’s Report for the University of Toronto academic year 1917-18, Sir Robert Falconer decided that it was time for the government of his day to “provide a living subsistence for certain students with demonstrated financial need.” To this end, the Ontario government created the Ontario Student Awards Program (OSAP)-in 1966. OSAP was intended to be a program to provide assistance financially to post-secondary students in need. From the onset in 1966-67, there were many problems. Students were first classified as to “dependency.” If you were marrried, had held a full-time job for 12 consecutive months, were 25 or over or had been in a post-secondary institution for 3 passing years, you were classified as “independent.” All others were Still regarded as financially dependent on their parents. Another point of contention was the monetary question sheet. OSAP awards were established by a complex formula, based on family income and assets and student earnings. The allocations were based on a 60% loan-40% grant format, with the first $150 in the form of a loan. The maximum was set at $1000 in the form of a loan. Press reaction to the initial program was mixed, but not that of the students involved. In a rare show of staff-student solidarity, the Canadian Union of Students (Ontario region), the Ontario Council for University Faculty Associations and the Committee of Presidents of Universities in Ontario issued a joint statement condemning the loans portion of the plan, calling it “a deterrent rather than an incentive for students in the lower income groups.” This criticism was followed by a demonstration by about 2000 students at Queen’s Park that fall. Opposition was already building. Changes were introduced shortly thereafter in the controversial sections. In subsequent years, the loan ceiling was reduced to $600, only family income was used as part of the assessment and living allowances were raised (from $350 to $400 for those living at home and from $350 to full costs for married students). However, this was balanced out by the independence clause being changed to four years of postsecondary study from three. Then came the ‘70’s. It appeared that the government’s attitude towards OSAP had ’ changed. Post-secondary education was no longer a priority and funds were tightening up. The mood was reflected in several ways. Firstly, independence was redefined. Those over 25 years old were no longer automatically excluded in the criteria. Also, the time in the labour force was increased to two full years from one. This made more people “dependent” on their parents, and thus decreased the amount able to be applied for per application. Secondly, the loan ceiling was reset; first from $600 to $800 in ‘72-73 and to $1000 in ‘76-77. At the same time, there were two $100 across-the-board tuition increases throughout the province. This effectively decreased the grant portion of the award, increasing the financial burden of the student and his/her family. This decreased the number of low-income students applying, since they were unwilling to incur the future debts. Finally; the calculations involved in determining the eligibility

the start

were deemed “unrealistic”. There was a set parental contribution, a set student contribution and living expenses which did not account for 4 years of inflation. The appeals structure was also such that it took long hours away from the students and was riddled with red tape. Any money won from an appeal was given as a loan, not a grant. After the 1973 Ontario Federation of Students (OFS) fee strike, the Interim Committee on Financial Assistance for Students was formed by the government. A series of provincewide mass meetings and a petition of 30,000 students raised hopes everywhere. A set of hearings involving student briefs to the Committee were scheduled and it looked as if some true advances had been made. Then, on the eve of the first hearing in November, 1975, the McKeough-Henderson report was released-“blueprint for cutbacks”. It was a crushing and disheartening moment for the organizers from OFS. Students everywhere reacted with shock and horror at what is now regarded as only the beginning of troubles for colleges and universities. At the Ottawa hearings, 300.angry Carleton students appeared. The student speaker, Scott Mullen, angrily denounced the Interim Committee’s credibility. Co-chair: person of the Committee Stephan Dupre asked “Are you suggesting we resign. q”, to which the students began chanting “YES!YES!” i n unison, before storming out. This move unnerved the entire government, especially after a hastily organized rally drew over 3000 participants at Queen’s Park in the dead of winter. The government then capitulated, stating that it would freeze tuitions for yet another year and use only the Interim Committee’s recommendations to change OSAP. Those recommendations were finally incorporated into the Ontario Students Grants Program (OSGP). They stated: 1) grants should come before loans, and 2) elimination of arbitrary summer earnings going towards education. The rest were tossed aside. But to save even more money, eligibility periods were introduced. This meant that anyone having had more than four years at a post-secondary institution was now ineligible. At a stroke, 2918 grad students and 7520 undergrads were cut off at a savings to the government of over $13 million. Part-time students got a different deal as well. Their costs were pro-rated for the percentage of time at university/college, but their deductible resources were not (therefore decreasing the award amount, almost always to zero). Worst of all, the OSGP (straight grants) was made undesirable as compared to the Canada Student Loan Plan (CSLP-straight loans). Living costs were some $800 less per year on OSGP, and a parental deduction of $1645 was not allowed when applying (it was with the CSLP). Parental contributions were also re-established arbitrarily and, some felt, totally unrealistically. This is where OSAP/OSGP stands today. Ontario’s government is still being cajoled and nudged by OFS and other student groups on the subject. So far, no change has been forthcoming, but a Federal Provincial Task Force has been formed to look at the state of student aid. N&k D’Gabriel

and slow passages. Although Ms. Higa was-- excellent, especially in the first movement, she was too often overwhelmed by Sanford’s brash clarinet and Stephen Harlos’ fine and clear piano playing. The second work, Brahms Sonata in E6, was a much livelier and more familiar work for piano and clarinet in contrast to the slow and pensive trio. As before, I found Sanford’s work on the clarinet to be too shrill and sharp. He may be partly excused for this because of his problems with his instrument; throughout the work he was continuously forced to readjust his mouthpiece to improve his sound. I was very impressed with Harlos at the piano. He asserted fine control over his instrument, although too much so in the slower sections of the piece, becoming slightly methodical and ponderous through his emphasis on technique. His playing was distinctive throughout the sonata and the entire concert. A fine effort. Celia Geiger

Reviewing classical concerts can be a trial. When i arrived at the Conrad Grebel Chapel for the noonday concert, I found that instead of the scheduled program, I would be seeing a replacement concert consisting of Brahm’s Trio in A, Op 114 for piano, cello and clarinet and his sonata in E6, Op 120, No. 2 $for clarinet and piano. Brahms’ trio in A was performed by Douglas Sanford on clarinet, Carol Higa on the cello and Stephen Harlos on piano. Consisting of four predominantly calm movements, tinged with a melancholy especially in the first two, I thought the trio was well done. The group was slightly tense and apprehensive, completely involved in their music and making no contact at all with the audience. The trio of performers worked well together, particularly in their timing but had a problem with their balance. Too often, Sanford’s clarinet shrilly dominated the piece. His playing was too sharp and abrupt, breaking disruptively into the piece. He was at his best on light runs

The Who prove Quadrophenia The

Soundtrack Who

The Who have been a bit of a puzzle of late; last year’s Who Are You seemed like a last attempt by a bunch of old farts to prove they really were still relevant, and it wasn’t verb successful. Basically, it just pointed out how good they, once were. “Music must change,” Daltrey sang, and while we agreed -with him, we weren’t necessarily happy about it. Similarly, The Kids Are Al/right film, while a useful and enjoyable documentary, only served to remind us of the band’s great past. At best - from the band’s point of view - it _ was a way of keeping the Who in the spotlight while stalling for time. On the other hand, the very fact that those projects, and this new version of Quudrophenia exist - all released within 16 months-and the favourable reports about their recent live shows seem to indicate that these guys are not yet ready to pull a John Lennon by buying a dairy farm and retiring to the country. Rock ‘n roll and the kids you and me i obviously still matter to the Who. What is a Quadrophenia? The original Quadrophenia, released in 1973, was Pete Townshend’s attempt to describe both the life of a young Mod, Jimmy, and his problems, and the dilemmas that face all youth as they grow up. Jimmy’s character is a composite of the dominant characteristics of each of the band members - he is therefore a kind of Everyman. Townshend posed a lot of questions about growing up, and about life, but offered few answers.

rock

While the film of Quadrophenia won’t be in Canada until early 1980, the soundtrack is out, and it gets across aurally’ in logical fashion what the film trusts to do visually. Each side of this new version - with the exception of the third - functions as a separate unit, complete in itself. The first side,, is Jimmy’s story, what you’d call the plot. It details his loves and sorrows, his alienation from society, and finally, his cry for inner strength as he contemplates suicide.

---The second side is the “Everyman” side. Each member of the band has a theme song that pertains to his dominant characteristic, and together they create the whole that is Jimmy’s character. They also articulate specific problems: “Bell Roy” describes the frustration of seeing someone you respect

Cale released three albums after this one, each one taking him one step further away from his roots in the delta blues-country tradition. “Troubadour”, his last efort, in 1976, had its moments, but his trademark guitar took a backseat to the strings and horns of Audie Audsworth’s production efforts. On Cale’s new album, simply called “5”, Cale lends a hand on the production for the first time, and the result is a return to the raw beauty and immediacy of his first album. Cale uses orchestral tracks sparingly on only two of the cuts, and on most of the songs he does all the tracks - bass, vocals and all guitars. Carl Radle, formerly with Eric Clapton’s band, helps out on bass, and Cale uses a few Nashville session musicians

to fill in the rhythm tracks, but he has avoided the production excesses of previous albums. Although Cale experiments with a wide range of influences, borrowing from Duke Ellington, from calypso and other southern musical styles, his guitar work indelibly stamps each cut with his own unique style. The first side starts off strongly, with “Thirteen Days”, Cale’s guitar sounding fuller, more powerful than ever. Cale’s singing is confident, and his songs have a fresh, upbeat tempo, although still retaining a bluesy feel. He really gets cooking on “Roiling Pot”, a song about the “ways of wanton women,” and continues on the next cut, “I’ll make Love to You Anytime”, one of the best cuts on the album. ’ Gale’s playing is aggressive here, each song driven by his lyric guitar, but he never crosses the line between good taste and selfindulgence. He knows he can play his instrument better than anyone, and he feels no need to prove it with pointless guitar heroics. The second side is a little mellower, a little more experimental, and also a little less successful. “Let’s go to Tahiti”, the only song not written by Cale, is a total shambles. The shuffling, atonal beat of this song is totally foreign to his style, and it is difficult to figure out why Cale includes it in on this album, but even here he almost succeeds in rescuing the song with. a beautiful guitar solo. The best cut is “Fate of a Fool”, a haunting lament about a singer (Cale himself?) who sings for “One more night/One more dollar. . . I don’t know/ I might not make it/That’s the fate of a fool.” Cale’s guitar cqpveys his despair expressively, blending beautifully with the lyrical gruffness of Cale’s voice. While Clapton’s guitar wails, Cale’s weeps, softly and movingly, in the traditional southern blues style. On the whole, this album is an excellent record in the best J. J. Cale tradition. The success of Dire Straits album has shown that there is a resurgence of interest in this type of music, of which J.J. Cale is the leading proponent in this decade. “5” may well be the album that will push Cale to the wider recognition he so richly deserves. Phillip

‘n roll

as a fighter capitulate and become part of the Establishment; “I’ve Had Enough” is about what happens when you’ve rejected pills, fighting, work, clothes - just about everything: “Helpless Dancer” is concerned with living up to the “tough guy” image, and “Doctor Jimmy” is about the dreamer that comes out through alcohol. Through the use of universal feelings, specific incidents and the implied transfer of the band member’s characteristics to Jimmy, side two establishes his character. Side four is basically background music for the film; it’s a collection of seven oldies from ‘62 and ‘63 (the time in which the story takes place). Essential to the film to give it historic credibility, they are separate from the other music on the record, so you can ignore them or listen to them at your leisure. Good thinking. The third side is leftover: the High Numbers (pre-Who) 1964 “Zoot Suit”, two songs that didn’t make it onto the original Quadrophenia. “The Punk and the Godfather,” and “High Heel Sneakers,” by the band Cross Section, who appear in the movie. The only surprise is a new song written for the soundtrack called “Get Out

J. J. Cale returns ’ to aggressive roots Although J. J. Cale has never enjoyed much commercial success, he has a large cult following both here and in the United States. Cale’s distinctive, haunting guitar, and his laid back vocal style have been a major influence on blues guitarists such as Eric Clapton and Mark Knopfler of Dire Straits. Clapton’s success with Cale’s “After Midnight” gave Cale his start in the recording business. His first album, “Naturally”, was released in 1971 and remains the definitive J. J. Cale album. Sparingly produced, each cut was a beautifully crafted gem, spun out in Cale’s gruff, sleepy vocal style and punctuated by this haunting guitar work.

Bonoff Talifornia

Not being too familiar with the music of Karla Bonoff, I was not sure what to expect when asked to listen to her new album, “Restless Nights.” A quick look at the credits on the record sleeve answered some of my questions, though. Recorded and mixed at the Sound Factory in Los Angeles. Guest appearances by members of the “California Mafia” - Danny Kortchmar, Don Henley, John David Souther, James Taylor. This all adds up to slick, California - MOR - Top-40 - FM rock. And that’s just what I got - pretty good stuff, too.

The other type of song on this album is a soft, gentle, very melodic tune, dealing with some of the not-so-positive aspects of love affairs. This is the best material to be found on Restless Nights. In “The Letter,” the singer finds, in her guy’s room, a love letter that he received from another woman. She comes to realize that she is no longer in the picture for him. “Only a Fool” (my favourite cut) tells of a’ one-sided relationship. The subject of the song has someone who needs and wants him, but he is too frightened of being hurt to respond. Karla’s lyrics reflect a great perception and understanding of human emotions. Whether she’s writing about jealousy, being hurt by someone, futility of trying to reach someone, or the joy that a good relationship can give, she is very convincing. The listener cannot help being caught up in it all. Overall, this is an easy listening, very pleasant album. If that is the type of music you enjoy, or if you’re a real rocker looking for something a bit different, Resfless Nights would make a healthy addition to your music collection. Peter

My initial reaction upon hearing the’ album was that it sounded like the Grande Dame of this genre, Linda R. This impression didn’t stick around for long, though. Karla’s music is pretty well the same type as Linda’s, and their voices are quite similar, but I prefer Karla. She seems a bit more sincere when she sings, maybe because she writes most of her own material. And the songs that she writes are quite enjoyable: The songs on “Restless Nights” deal with female-male relationships, and as there are two sides to any story, there are two types of songs here. There are a few soft-rockers, most of which are concerned with the positive side. “When You Walk in the Room” tells of the daydreaming of a girl who wants to be with a guy that she really likes, but isn’t sure if he even knows her name. (You may ask how this is a positive thing. Well, the singer is not worried that her dreams may not come true, but is getting as much enjoyment out of her dreams as she possibly can.) “Loving You” is a song about the confirmation of a relationship; after travelling around and meeting all sorts of people, she realizes that the friend she has at home is the best that she’s going to find.

and Stay Out,” a bouncy number with some great piano. It’s unlike anything that Townshend’s written in a while, and proves he can still write a catchy, singles-type tune. The Quadrophenia soundtrack is encouraging because it shows that the Who are still relevant. Even though most of the stuff here is at least six years old, it still sounds fresh and exciting. One realizes that what old farts like the Who stand for now, or what they stood for in 1973 - or 1965 for that matter - is not far removed from the social consciousness and problems of youth articulated by groups like the Clash and the Jam today. And that’s an encouraging thought. Why buy this new version of Quadropheniu rather than/on top of the original? Well, the ideas are a lot clearer, a lot more logically laid out than the 1973 version, and the sound is a bit better too. Bassist John Entwistle has remixed the originals, bringing up the bass and vocals somewhat. Why buy either version of Quadrophenia? ‘Cause they’re Who records some of the best bloody rock ‘n roll ever made. And that should be reason enough for anybody.

Fodkrt: Slick ‘production Jackrabbit Slim Steve Forbert

The wistful appeal of “Alive on Arrival” gives way to a bouncier enthusiasm on “Jackrabbit Slim,” the second album by Steve Forbert. Strongly reminiscent of Bob Dylan, the album features rasping vocals supported prominently by the harmonica. There is the same introduction of hymnal backing harmonies so notii=eable on Dylan’s latest material. Slick production contributes much to “Romeo’s Tune” and “Say Goodbye to Little Jo,‘!‘ songs which are delivered as ’ exuberantly on record as they are in concert. However, the plaintive ballads typical of Forbert’s earlier work are also represented, though clearly dominated by the livelier tempo of the album. If the eager reception given to Forbert as his recent El Mocambo appearance is any indication, Jackrabbit Slim may provide the push needed to gain this new artist a wider and appreciative audience.

Movie

to end disaster

“It’s five miles wide .. . it’s coming at 30,000 m.p.h. .. .and there’s no place on Earth to hide! American International Pictures’ latest release, Meleor, is a disaster movie to end all disaster movies, brought to you by director Ronald Neame, who directed The

Poseidon Aduen ture. In Meteor, a large asteroid

is on a direct collision course with the Earth, and NASA scientists are frantically trying to stop it. Sean Connery and karl Malden are two scientists who are left in charge of the problem. Connery is his usual excellent self as a scientist who left NASA some years ago when the government used his design of a satellite for military purposes. He is still very bitter over that matter, and has to be convinced to help by his comrades. He remains calm and aloof, a good foil to Malden, who constantly seemed to be on the verge of panic. Martin Landau as the hot-headed, skeptical commander of an underground missile base is a good contrast to his usual “nice-guy” roles, and Henry Fonda is a natural for the role of the President, but the outstanding performance has to be that of Brian Keith, who plays the Russian scientist. It’s a major character, yet he speaks only in Russian. This made it necessary. for Keith , who knows no Russian, to express himself with tone of voice and body movement only. Natalie Wood, as the Russian scientist’s interpreter, handles the role with her usual grace, using her knowledge of Russian to the fullest. The special effects are to say the least astounding. Over half of the movie’s $16 million budget was spent on the effects, and it was well worth it. The scenes within the asteroid belt look true-to-life, although a bit cluttered. (The asteroids aren’t that close together.) The asteroid itself looks menacing as it comes toward Earth; it gently “rolls” in space, and at one point it resembles a giant maw ready to swallow anything in its path. Scenes of destruction work well under Neame’s direction. Small splinters of the asteroid precede the asteroid itself and cause massive destruction and chaos, which provided a field day for the special effects department. The massive snowslide in the Swiss Alps looks so real that it

movies

resembles news coverage of it, as does the lOO-foot tidal wave that destroys Hong Kong. The destruction of much of New York City was extremely impressive. Buildings collapse, and Manhattan has a crater gouged into it, but most remarkable was the collapse and explosion of the World Trade Centre as a fragment hits it. the work put into miniatures was expensive, and timeconsuming which may explain why the film was released two years later than originally planned. At the beginning of the film the special effects are amateurish and plastic, the camera moves jerkily, and the actors seem to be reading from cue cards. Then the action begins, and you’re swept into it so much you don’t notice that the overall quality of the film has improved. One of the best parts of the film is the * underlying theme of international cooperation between traditional enemies in the face of mutual disaster. The Americans and the Russians both have to reveal military secrets to get one another to help combat the oncoming meteor. The film shows how the two major powers can work with, not against, each other. The Russians portrayed aren’t the stereotypical Communism-and-vodka Russians: they are human as well with a natural sense of humour. When the personnel of the missile base have just finished digging their way out of a flooded and very muddy subway tunnel, the Russian scientist (Keith) mutters something which the interpreter translates: “One day you will come to Moscow and see a clean subway.” Less noticeable, but still present, is another, minor theme about certain failings within the American system. For example, the U.S. government decides to keep quiet about the oncoming threat, (“The American people are better off not knowing,“says one of the President’s advisors), only to later find that the BBC has made everything public. The film is a visually dazzling, suspenseful venture that also has some meaning to it. Interestingly it was inspired by Project Icarus, a satellite launched in 1968 with atomic warheads pointing outward to prevent such a disaster, after a small asteroid named Icarus almost did hit us.

“The real question is: Does she care whether the human race survives or not? She doesn’t know. The dinosaurs didn’t survive and it wasn’t the end of the world. In her bleaker moments, of which, she realizes, this is -one, she feels the human race has it coming. Nature will think up ‘something else. Or not, as the case may be.” Margaret Atwood’s fourth and most recent novel is a novel about modern -dinosaurs. The question is, “Are dinosaurs, Life Before worth, studying. 3” Definitely. .I. Man- i6 a fine and complex piece of work made vivid by Atwood’s striking images and her poetic economy. Her insights into problems and situations and stereotypes are astute and often hysterically funny. This is not a, great book, but it is an important one. The novel is a clinical analysis of unimportant ‘people; it is a record; it. is an exhibition of people’s lives put on display within a paper display case. The world of Atwood’s creation is an in-between world of life in death, a middle world, an undefined and indifferent world. “But does the Mesozoic exist? When it did it was called nothing. The dinosaurs didn’t know they were in the Mesozoic. They didn’t ,know they were only in the ‘middle. They didn’t intend to become extinct; as far as they knew they would live forever. Perhaps she should write the truth: The Mesozoic isn’t real. It’s only a word for a place you can’t go to any more because it isn’t there. It’s called the Mesozoic because @ we call it that.” Atwood presents a love triangle. Nate is married to Elizabeth but moves in with Lesje. Not only does Atwood avoid judgements or comment on the situation, so do the characters. People do what people do, with no eyebrows raised.’ Elizabeth is indifferent and is wandering in her own affairs. Nate fluctuates indecisively between Elizabeth and Lesje and an old mistress named Martha. Lesje, for most of the novel, continues to live with William. Each character takes only a mild interest in what the other does. Even death has only a passing melancholy effect. Life in death. Life Before Man, despite its humour and its insights, is a #bleak novel. We see the world+om the perspectives of its three main characters Nate, Elizabeth and Lesje in chapters of the same names. We look into their minds and their opinions and especially their pasts. It is a novel of the interior of the mind. Though it is set in Toronto, we are not even given a skeletal description of the city. Little exists outside of the minds of these three people. The perfunctory nods to events such as Rene Levesque’s election are

Elizabeth is the closest to death in a more literal sense. Although working, like Lesje; in the ROM, her job is undefined and vague. Her association with death is more concrete. Her lover shot his head off; her sister willed herself to die; her mother burned; her hated Aunt Muriel spends all of her time having relatives cremated and has them buried in the-family plot yet when she dies refuses cremation. Elizabeth is morbid; she especially fears that her children will die unattended. Elizabeth’s lover, Chris, is the only actual suicide which takes place within the time frame of the book. The other characters attempt it, threaten it or at least consider it. Dinosaurs became extinct because of their inability to adapt. The humour”ln the novel keeps the novel from being oppressive. Aunt Muriel’s funeral is hilariously funny. She is buried to the .music of the celebration of life; Easter and Christmas hymns. Most of the humour in the book lies in’astute, short observations upon the situation. Her prose is often abrupt and to the point, sarcastic and snide.

In any event, I highly recommend to anyone who has an open mind, and good sense of humour, that they wee a wise woman called Robin Tyler any time they can get the chance. As for closed-minded people, Tyler is a must! Once again, she closed her performance with something like, “If I offended any of you or made you feel uneasy - you deserve it.” Al McPhail

distant and few, having no meaning or importance for the characters. They have no interests outside themselves. Life is close to death. Even Hallowe’en is unpleasant. The children “are souls, come back, crying at the door, hungry, mburning their lost lives. You give them food, money, anything to substitute. for your love and blood, hoping it will be enough, waiting for them to go away.” The world is indifferent -on the side of cruel and or&imagines babies being miscarried as masses of lard. Each of the characters is surrounded by death and his past family life. Lesje works in the ROM putting dinosaur bones togeher. Dinosaurs are her obsession; they are the only thing she is competent to talk about. Atwood has imposed an unconvincing Ukrainian/Jewish background on her and makes a good deal of the conflicts within this multicultural heritage. Lesje wants to live in a lost world she can never, find, not recognizing that she does live in a lost world, but, like the dinosaur is unaware of her life state. .

Warriors The Warrior basketball team played and lost their first game of the season, an 85-72 decision to Toronto Estonia, last Sunday in Etobicoke. The Estonians, a senior team boasting among its personnel six former or current members of the national team, carried a significant height advantage into the game. Coach Don McCrae used all twelve of his players equally during the game and the Warriors, after a slow start, played extremely well in the second half to keep the game close. Waterloo got strong performances from Rich Kurtz, who was easily the most aggressive and effective player on the court. Brian Ray, John Freund and Leon Passmore also played well for the Warriors. The Estonians, led by former Warriors Jamie Russell and Phil Schlote with 16 points apiece, had little difficulty controlling the game in the first half. Their three forwards (Russell is the smallest at 6’8”) controlled the hoards (at least when Kurtz was on the bench) while the Estonian guards (Pat Brill-Edwards and Val Pozzan) had too much experience for the young Warrior guards. The game remained close for the first 10 minutes before the Estonians pulled out to a comfortable lead. The score at the half was 44-31. In the second half, the Toronto team’scored the first eight points but from there on the game belonged to Waterloo. In the last 17 minutes, the Warriors outplayed Toronto and outscored them 41-331 Their 41 points included going 11 for 11 from the free throw line. “We played everybody. We did some things well and some other things not so well. We pulled dow 48 rebounds; that’s

Kurtz

a lot but we had 35 turnovers. That’s also a lot. Some of them can be. attributed to the fact that we played everybody’and some of the players are still not quite used to each other, especially when the game is played at that pace and intensity. The size and experience of Estonia proved to be to much for us. I’d like to play them later in the season, however,” commented McCrae, Leading the Warrior scoring were John Freund and Doug Vance with 10 points apiece. Brian Kay, Kurtz and Passmore had eight points each. In addition, Vance grabbed 13 rebounds while Kurtz pulled down 11. Vance had a great defensive game for Waterloo. In addition to his 13 rebounds he was the team leader on the court even though he showed only flashes of his offensive potential. This weekend the Warriors travel to Thunder Bay t,o play two games against Lakehead. Seymour Hadwen, who had his cast removed this week, should begin practicing with the team and may play this weekend.

Warriors down Humber in fight-filled cbntest -

The Waterloo hockev Warriors won two out of three games this past week. Last weekend, they played and defeated Humber College 6-4 on Friday night and lost a 4-2 decision to York on Saturday night. Prior to the weekend games Waterloo beat the defending OUAA champions, Guelph, 5-4. In the game against Humber, played before a small crowd at Waterloo Arena, the Warriors got goals from Ed Azzola, Mike Longpre, Paul Foley, Archie Chase, John Vermeer and John Whalen. The game was a return match of a game played in Toronto against Humber. The Warriors lost that game 9-7. This game was similar to the first one in at least one way. Both games were marred by a ridiculous amount of fighting and chippy play. Members of the Warrior team, prior to Friday’s game, were conscious that it was going to be another fight-filled game and yet

despite their fore-knowledge, and the fore-‘knowledge of ’ everyone in. the building including, presumably, the,officials and the opposing coaches, there seemed to be nothing which could be done to prevent it. The officials -called a lot of penalties and yet were unable to control the game. Eight players from Waterloo, and nine from Humber were ejected from the game for fighting. Humber, which plays in a league where fighters are given only a five minute penalty, was not happy with the University rule which resulted in the ejection of their players. In the game itself, Waterloo began the second period tied 2-2, and scored the next three goals. Humber got one back before the end of the period. Don Langlois, the Warrior captain, came close to putting the game out of reach in the second period, when, on one shift, he managed to hit the post twice. He hit another post in the third period but was unable to score. .

half problems

The Athenas basketball team lost 8359 to Laurentian this weekend. They were down 43-24 at the half, and never managed to fully recover. The first half was pretty slow for Waterloo offensively. Coach Sally Kemp said “Recently, we seem to have problems getting our offense going, especially in the first half.” Waterloo started to play much better ball in the second half. They were concentrating on defense, and doing a good job. UW started to move ahead, but

plague

were thwarted when they started to commit too many errors. Laurentian capitalized on the Athenas’ mistakes. A fast team, they run a fast break with two players downcourt to set up two-on-one situations. The personnel on the Athenas is beginning to develop. Jenny Russell and Nancy Campbell are starting to shoot from the outside, as well as setting up. play, and driving. Sue Porter, says Kemp, “is taking more shots and getting going.”

Athenas Lacking in experience now, Jill Fisher and Robin Burgess should both be good assets to the team in the second half of the season. Kemp feels the *Athenas made progress during the game, .although it wasn’t reflected in the final score. She says they should be making better use of their post players, and getting more passes in under the basket. Friday, November 9 at 7:OO p.m., London Club team come to Waterloo to challenge the Athenas at the PAC.

The Athena Volleyball improving every team, week, went to the finals of the University of Windsor’s Can-Am Tournament before losing both matches to Central Michigan. The team, which has been aiming for consistency in their games, put it together in the games they won. “In the matches we lost or split, that’s where we lacked consistency,” said Pat Davis, coach of the Athenas. One improvement in their game is they are getting more attack into their offense. Marnie McMahon, the centre blocker, Carolyn Aldwinkle, a setter and power hitter, and Karen McAllister all played very well in the tournament. The team will be working on consistency and offense as they prepare for their first league game on Tuesday, November 13. Murray McCormick

Waterpolo Last weekend at the University Challenge Cup held at McMaster, the Waterloo Warriors pulled off an unexpected coup, placing fifth in the . unofficial CIAUs. In a field of 10 teams including Calgary, Dalhousie and eight other Ontario , university teams, the UW team placed much higher than expected. Finishing ninth last year, they improved their standing with a solid team effort. Friday’s games against RMC and Carleton were After a slow unexciting. start, UW held on to beat RMC 8-6. In the game against Carleton, UW lost 11-6. Carleton, the home training ground for the Canadian National team finished third in t,he tournament. Saturday’s games were much more exciting, especially the Western

game. UW beat Western 5-4 (their first win over Western in two years). Outstanding defence and consistent efforts by the entire team finany paid off. The morning loss to Dalhousie (12-5) went as well as expected consi-, dering the previous night’s hectic schedule. Toronto’s no-show on Sunday forfeited the game to Waterloo. Waterloo was left waiting around until 2 pm for their first game of the day. In a repeat of Saturday’s performance, Waterloo demonstratEd its ability to play as a team defeating Calgary 9-8. Lou Wagner, the coach, was thrilled and joined the team for a dip in the pool after the game. We hope the team can keep up the momentum and finish the season strongly. Next weekend, the regular season games continue at the U of T’s new Benson building. Katherine Suboch

w&Y The Warrior Rugby team descended upon the Varsity Blues and when the mud had cleared they had ended their six game winless streak. University of Toronto, on the losing end of a 13-10 score, were not prepared for the aggressive play of the varsity side. By the midway point of the first half if was obvious the Blues did not want the ball. The Warrior backs, given the opportunity to run with ball proved they should have been the best in the league. The varsity forwards played a strong game, especially in the lineouts where they only lost two balls. Marty Vint, Ian Cathrey and Murray McCormick were unbeatable in the set play. Peter Muirhead played a super game at Mike Murphy’s position. Murphy was suspended for fighting last week. Both of the tries were scored by Ian Cathrey.

Cathrey was a member of the Ontario team that lost to British Columbia in the Canadian Rugby Championships. With the return of Ian, Fraser Jennings and the excellent prospects on the Club Side, the team should be very strong for 1980. Phil While, “The Golden Toe,” rounded out the scoring by hitting a convert and a penalty kick from impossible seemingly angles. The win against Toronto was very important to the players; it proved to them that they could win. They can head into the winter break with this comforting thought. The Warriors hope to salvage something out of the season and win the 7aside Championships in York this weekend. “We donated the trophy so we’d like to see it come to the University of Waterloo,” said Derek Humphreys, head Rugby coach at U of W. The club won the championships in 1974. Murray McCormick

The 1979 OUAA football season ended with its traditionally strong teams, Laurier and Western, still dominating. For Waterloo, it wasn’t just another ordinary season; at the beginning, the team had high hopes of going far. They were ranked third in the conference, but injuries got the best of themandlimited their success during the season. Even though they lost a couple of crucial games because of mental mistakes, which cost them their playoff berth, they themselves knew how well they had played and still believed in themselves. Their belief was not in vain because at the end of the season Waterloo submitted five names to the voting and came back proudly with 3 all-stars.

The all-stars are selected by the league’s coaches. Waterloo ranked third, behind Laurier and Western (who had 6 each) in allstar selections. The three selections are Rob Sommerville (defensive back), Frank Kosec (outside linebacker) and Bill Boug (tight end).

The finals of the intramural soccer were held last Tuesday evening at Seagram Stadium. In the ADivision final the Caribbean All-stars defeated East Quad Alumni l-0, while Renison defeated ,Math by the same score in the B-division. In A-division, the Caribbean’s goal came off the foot of Andy Fung. Twenty minutes into the first half, Fung took a pass from Paul de Gannes before firing his shot from just inside the 18 yard box. East Quad began the game well, attacking and controlling the play for the first 10 minutes of the game. But they seemed to have difficulty with the rain and muddy conditions and the All-stars took control. It took East Quad some time to get used to the field conditions. Midway through the second half they began to press once again and actually dominated the final 10 minutes. Their most effective weapon was the long throw in, as they were unable to penetrate the Caribbean defence except by the use of the throw. Ricardo Perreira, the Caribbean goalkeeper, was voted by his team as the man of the match for his several outstanding saves in the second half. In -the B-division final, Renison’s continued pressure gave them numerous opportunities to score, but it was late in the second half before a long looping shot off the foot of Gary Rasberry finally found its way into the back of the net. The B-final was a contest between a consistent deteam fensively-strong (Renison) and an explosive scoring team (Math). Math, the underdogs from the beginning, were unable to put forth any real offense until after the Renison goal. Then, in the final minscoring .utes, the potent machine swarmed around the Renison goal, only to see a couple of solid opportunities thwarted by fine defensive work.
